✰ WEEK 3 ( INVESTIGATION )

Magical Girl Raising Project

Friday, Week 3

15 REMAIN...?

You guys thought last week was strange? This week is even worse. First of all, there's the lingering thoughts in the air, the attempt to deduce who the real killer of Eliza was after failure. It's a bright determination never to fail again. But then, there was that motive... a friend in danger, and the fact that it's difficult to tell if they're real or not.

At least waking up seems to be fine; there's no big issue... except for the fact that today is the final day before Fav decided to kill the hostages. There has to be a way to stop him-

"Someone has been murdered, pon. And because of that, your hostages will be spared, pon."

Well, then.

[She's curled up, her arms wrapped around her stomach.]

[hawthorned]

[Her stomach huh? Well that seems a little odd...

Is there anything to see if her arms are gently prised away from her stomach?]

[raisingproject]

[No, she's clean. But her hand is clenched around something.]

[hawthorned]

[Oh, can we try and open up her hand to see what she's holding on to?]

[raisingproject]

[It's clenched rather tightly but there's a bit of blood. The hand won't open but, something glints from between her fingers.]

[hawthorned]

[Welo, sacrifices have to be made. Time to break Seraphina's hand!! Just kidding. Dahlia will look over her shoulder at Eruna here.]

...Do you think that's a key?

[And while we're at it: Is Seraphina wearing regular clothes or is she transformed at the moment?]

[raisingproject]

[She is in her normal clothes. The floor around her is bloody, and some of it has gotten on her clothes.]

[hawthorned]

[Hrm... Any blood on the soles of Seraphina's shoes?]

[raisingproject]

[That's a no.]

[zackthekiller]

[Zack finally wanders in after Miach, holding some extra bandages under his arm as he makes his way to Seraphina. He kind of stares at her for a moment before handing the bandages to Dahlia.]

Here are the bandages you wanted. You're damn lucky I happened to be at the hospital when you called.

[ladiesfirst]

Maybe? But if it is a key, is it for her room or somewhere else?

[hawthorned]

It's difficult to say for sure, she's holding on to it quite tightly.. so I assume it must be important.

[A beat.]

When she regains consciousness she'll be able to tell us more about what happened. Is there anyone we could call for help with that?

[enthrallingly]

[Trying to take whatever is in her hand seems to finally wake her up, her hands tightening around it even tighter as if trying to keep it at any cost.

...which there is a small cost. Blood seems to be dripping between her fingers.]

Oww....

[Give her a minute... she's not totally with it yet.]

[hawthorned]

[Ah, sleeping beauty awakes. Dahlia has a feeling she's going to prefer those times when she was out.]

Miss Seraphina, you're hurting yourself... please open up your hand.

[enthrallingly]

[They all probably will. Especially now. Because looking at her bleeding hand-- at what's in it-- Seraphina's suddenly very much awake.]

AAAAHHHHHHH!!

[It's clear now that the thing in her hand is a piece of glass.

But when she starts moving around too much she winces again. There's a dark bruise on her stomach.]

Oww.

[She scowls and covers the bruise with her good hand.]

[hawthorned]

[Great, that is definitely ringing in her ears that won't go away for a couple of minutes.]

Miss Seraphina, you're alright. [...well, no. She was never "alright" but semantics.]

Please take some deep breaths and try to calm down. Besides your hand and your stomach, are you hurt anywhere else?

[enthrallingly]

[Seraphina takes a deep breath. Besides her hand her her stomach...]

No. No... I'm fine.

[But she's not letting that piece of glass go.]

[hawthorned]

Alright then, I'll stop asking that. [Wow compassionate.]

You need to let go of the glass so we can do something about the bleeding.

[...And hey Zack did bring over the bandages, better put them to use.]

[enthrallingly]

I won't let go of it. Not until I ensure it puts the true culprit in their place.

[...but she will move it to her other hand. Luckily the cuts aren't too bad,
but there are a few of them. It's a very jagged piece of mirror.]

[hawthorned]

What happened, Miss Seraphina?

[They should probably be washing those cuts out first, but for now rudimentary first aid skills are go.
Dahlia will start wrapping those bandages around her hand.]

[enthrallingly]

[The bandages are nice, at least she won't be adding to the bloody scene.]

I was supposed to meet Nanami here last night. But then Zack showed up and attacked us both! I thought we were both dead... But then somehow I woke up just fine. As if it never it happened.

[However that happened, she doesn't seem to know. What she does know however--]

But then I was attacked again. I tried to fight it, but I was knocked unconscious. But not before I grabbed this piece of evidence.

[She seems proud of that. The rest... she's just mad.]

[hawthorned]

[w h a t.

Okay so there's a ton of things to ask about this whole thing, but she'll go sequentially.]

....Wait.... Miss Nanami called you here and you were attacked? How do you know for certain that it was Zack?

[enthrallingly]

No. I called Nanami here. But it seems that Zack was following her. It looks like he intended to kill her but when he saw me, he tried to kill me too.

[She crosses her arms over her chest.]

But somehow we were both saved.

After that, I didn't see Zack anywhere. Just Me, Nanami... and naturally the real culprit. That backstabbing fox....

[hawthorned]

[.... double w h a t.]

....Just to be clear, Miss Serafina, you're certain that it was Zack and Miss Tamamo that you saw. How were you able to identify them?

[enthrallingly]

I saw Zack myself when he tried to kill me. As for Tamamao... I have the evidence right here.

[She holds up the piece. When held up it becomes clear that it's just not any glass... Dahlia can see her own reflection in it. It seems to be a mirror shard.]
